Hello,

We just upgraded the forum module on our local intranet from v3.20.09 to v4.4.3.  Since this upgrade, I have been unable to delete posts.  When I try to delete them, I get the error message: "An error has occurred.  Delete Post is currently unavailable.".

I am an admin on our portal, as well as having "Edit Module", "Forum Admin" and "Global Moderator" checked on the module settings.  Is there somewhere else I need to assign rights?  Or is this a non-security issue with the module?

I would appreciate any suggestions, as this error is somewhat unclear.

Thank you!

Matthias,

Thanks for your reply.  Unfortunately, I am still experiencing problems.

I ran the statement in the Pinned thread without errors.  When I then attempted to to delete a post (using the Host account), this is the error message that was displayed:

Error: Delete Post is currently unavailable.

I then tried to run the statement in your 2nd solution, and got this error:

I would appreciate any futher thoughts you might have on how to resolve this issue.  Thanks again!

I had the same problem restarting the application solved my problem...

Thanks Matthias
